Abstract
While Multidisciplinay Design Optimization (MDO) literature focuses mainly on the development of different formulations, through the manipulation of design variables, less attention is generally devoted to the combination of specific MDO formulations with existing nonlinear optimization algorithms. In this paper, the focus is on the application of a Global Optimization (GO) algorithm to an MDO problem. We first introduce and describe some MDO approaches from the literature. Then, we consider our MDO formulation where we deal with the GO boxconstrained problem min a≤x≤b f(x), f : IR → IR.
